Notes

Digitised at 78 rpm (uploaded belatedly from 2021-10-26, but with a remake until the original audio can be retrieved), using Audio Technica VM95 Series dual moving magnet stereo phono cartridge with 3.0 mil conical bonded stylus AT-VMN95SP, and Audacity software for recording on 2-channel stereo direct from a built-in USB in the turntable; exported to 16-bit WAVE with generally no software correction (unless noted). A scanner is used by 'My 78s' for JPEGs, so will always show marks on equipment as well as any on a 78.
